Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the public law appeal was admissible despite the low disputed amount in an employer-liability claim under Art. 52 LAVS.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The appeal was inadmissible because employer liability under Art. 52 LAVS is a state-liability case, the disputed amount did not reach CHF 30,000, and no question of principle was shown.
Extrahierte Begründung
The Court held that Art. 52 LAVS falls under state liability for purposes of Art. 85(1)(a) LTF. The remaining disputed amount was only CHF 9,911.90, below the statutory threshold, and the appellant failed to demonstrate a question of principle under Art. 85(2) LTF.
